• OTM Open Thread 3/28: It is Thursday

    Happy Opening Day! In, checks notes, just over 12 hours the Red Sox take on the Seattle Mariners. 10:10 PM ET. LOL. Full Throttle indeed. Brayan Bello makes his first Opening Day start of hopefully many. The Run Prevention Unit hits the field. All teams (except the Dodgers and Padres) are 0-0. Look, no one thinks this is a championship year. But let’s not drop 10 games under .500 to kick things off and watch the team try to crawl back. Talk about what you want and be good to one another.

  • OTM Open Thread 3/27: It is Wednesday

    Happy Wednesday. Well, after months of speculation and countless MLB insiders projecting Jordan Montgomery to the Red Sox the last big name pitcher on the market has signed with the Arizona Diamondbacks. For potentially a one-year deal. Is Montgomery a clear #1 ace-caliber pitcher? No. Did the Red Sox really let a one year deal pass them by when the starting rotation is, with the most optimistic upside included, merely fine? Yes. It’s stunning. Good thing trading Mookie gave the team so much...

  • Orioles Opening Day Game Thread: vs. Angels, 3:05

    The weather may be dreary in Baltimore today, but that won’t be enough to dampen one of the most exciting Opening Days in Orioles history.

But it’s not just the immediate season that’s promising. The Orioles are set up to have a...

  • March Madness Day 2 - Non-Purdue Games Open Thread

    Purdue doesn’t play until 7:25 tonight. It’s going to be a long afternoon and early evening as we Purdue fans do our best to wait patiently for tipoff. I’m not sure how patient most of you feel, so come on into the comments and get your anxiety out by chatting about the non-Purdue games from today. As was noted in yesterday’s second open thread, two open threads were a bit of an overkill. I thought it would help clean things up as the games transitioned from the early to the late but that turned...
